DESCRIPTION:
At our Fun Club Camp the fun never stops. We teach Kinex Campers greater kinesthetic intelligience using all the best practices from educational kinesiology, developmental motor learning theory, sports and coaching sciences. Our friendly and knowledgeable coaches and consellors engage each Kinex Camper to play and learn athletic and artistic skills all while having fun no matter what their age or current abilities.
Some days we will take the Kinex Van and take 6-10 children to local 1 hour hikes to visit the horses on horse hill or cool off at the Three Wells in Cascade Canyon, play capture the flag in the Redwoods in Blithedale Caynon. We use fun and exciting training techniques and games that really help kids learn how to uncover and develop their “inner athlete" and "inner perfomer". Our facilitators help uncover each child's unique talents and guide them in developing their personal gifts in athletic and the performing arts. Young athletes develop positive self talk strategies that supports their athletic and performing arts skill development.
We also use video feedback onsite so campers can see exactly how they perform new skills or change old ineffective movement habits. Through our proprietory Kinextions Dialog Process. Our coaches help guide Kinex campers to make important connections between, self-talk and movement skill performance, interpersonal communications and the unified “team mind”. We help young athletes and performers of all ages to identify the bodily felt sense of performing “in synch” in their coordinated body movements, “in synch” in their movement skills and self-talk, and “in synch” in their player-to-player relationships, and ultimately “in synch” and in the “zone” as a unified “Body-Mind-Team”.
Each Friday is Beach day at Kinex. We head to Sausalito beach for children in grades K-2 and Muir Beach for children in grades 3-7 to train and play at the beach. Pick-up is at Sausalito or Muir Beach Parking lot on Fridays at 3:00 PM. We also have a Van that returns with campers staying for the Kinex Extended Day Services.
